Book of BATEY

John BATEY was the father of Elizabeth BATEY who was born in 1819 at Cockenshield, Shotley, Northumberland. John was a labourer when Elizabeth married Ralph KIRSOP on the 30th September 1844 in St Nicholas Church, Newcastle Upon Tyne, Northumberland. Witnesses were Thomas MARSHALL who was Ralph's brother in law and Edward ELLIOTT. They produced five grandchildren for me. My daughter resided on the 18th December 1848 at 432 Leadgate, Iveston, Durham. She appeared on the census in 1851 in Snow's Green, Benfieldside, Durham and by 1881 she was living at Success Pit, Collierley, Durham. Elizabeth was buried on the 21st December1887 at Collierley Chapel, Durham.
